Popis: | OBJECTIVE: To determine differences in obesity, type 2 diabetes, and hypertension in Black patients compared with White patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). DESIGN: Cross-sectional database review. SETTING: Large academic medical center research records database. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 3191 patient cases (N=3191; 77% female, 34% Black) identified by MS diagnosis within the medical record. INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Diagnosis codes for type 2 diabetes and hypertension. Body mass index (BMI), race, age, and sex were collected. Analysis of variance (continuous variables) and chi-square analyses (categorical variables) were conducted to determine differences in obesity, diabetes, and hypertension between race and sex. Logistic regression was conducted to determine odds ratios (ORs) of developing diabetes and hypertension based on race, sex, BMI, and age. RESULTS: Black patients were more than twice as likely to be diagnosed as having diabetes (OR, 2.15 [95% CI, 1.70–2.72]; P |
